About This Home

As of September 2020

Remarkable 1-acre land in the heart of the beach neighborhood of Fairfield, the county’s college town. Perhaps the best hidden secret south of the village, this very hip renovated Greek revival is tucked behind a stone wall away from the hustle and bustle of the modern town center and is the ultimate destination for anyone seeking serenity during the pandemic. Entertaining is easy with a generous outdoor terrace and a flat acre of lawn for gathering friends and family at a social distance. Inside you’ll find 9’ ceilings and generous proportions and plenty of light throughout, offering flexible options for working and schooling at home. Destinctive and beautiful details remain but every modern convenience has been built into this 6 bedroom 5 and 1 half bath home. Enjoy sea breezes and suburban living knowing that the beach, train and restaurants are only a stones throw away.
